Cleavers: The Inner Water Purifier

Sometimes big medicine comes in the form of a small plant. Cleavers is one of those plants; humble and unassuming, yet a potent and highly useful remedy. It's is like a water purifier for your body. It cleanses the lymphatics, flushes the kidneys, and offers pain relief for urinary tract infections.

Cleavers teaches us that it's not always best to use the strongest remedies, but rather sometimes the milder medicines yield the best results. Sometimes, it's the gentle ones that possess a subtle yet profound ability to restore balance and promote true healing from within.

In today's plant profile, you'll discover:

• How Cleaver's salty taste and juicy leaves translate to its effects on all of the water pathways in the body

• Why you need this herb if you get chronic urinary tract infections

• Cleavers' intrinsic connection with Venus, Pisces, and the Water Element–and how this impacts your relationships and urinary system health

• This herb's dual moistening and drying energetics
